Prinstabooks

A few weeks ago, I was asked if I wanted to try out a new service to print out Instagram pictures in to mini books. I thought, “sure why not.” Then I looked through my Instagram account and thought “what in the world am I going to be able to print without looking really inconsistent?” While away at my parents last week I decided I wanted to capture the “roses.” We never just casually drive to my parents. 9-10 hours is a long time to sit in the car with kids, the fast we get to our destination the better. This time, it was just the girls and I, i made sure we stopped and enjoyed the journey.

This past Saturday I received my first Prinstabooks album filled with the images along the journey to grandma’s house. Here is my review of these little treasures.

Pros:

Wonderful colors

High quality image resolution

Compact

Great price

Fast shipping and service

Easy to use uploading software

the separate prints were a bonus!

Cons:

Wish there was a custom cover page to the album

The holes for the binding could impede on part of the image so be aware of image placement.

I’ll admit when the package arrived I was a tad surprised at how small the book actually was, which isn’t a con I had simply imagined it would be bigger for some unknown reason. Maybe because the images of other people’s Prinstabooks seemed so much bigger in the picture. 🙂 The prints are about 4″ x 4″ in size. Here is the best thing in my opinion… the holidays are right around the corner. What better gift than to make aunts, uncles, grandparents, & spouses a book. I was thinking I make use/take photos with negative space and use them as little journals to write thoughts to my kids then they can have them when they are old enough to keep them safe. 🙂 The possibilities are endless. If nothing else, they are a wonderful way to have a physical memory of photos captured on our phones.

Prayer for Healing

Lord, You invite all who are burdened to come to you. Allow Your healing Hand to heal me. Touch my soul with Your compassion for others; touch my heart with Your courage and infinite Love for all; touch my mind with Your Wisdom, and may my mouth always proclaim Your praise. Teach me to reach out to You in all my needs, and help me to lead others to You by my example.
Most loving Heart of Jesus, bring me health in body and spirit that I may serve You with all my strength. Touch gently this life which you have created, now and forever.Amen.
